Editor's Note

I'm excited to announce that pricing expert Jon Manning, from Pricing Prophets, will join me on stage when our MSP Index roadshow returns to Melbourne on March 12, to share his view of tech pricing in the time of AI.

Jon has completed over 120 projects for clients in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Fortune 100, the FTSE100, the CAC Next 20, and the ASX200, right through to companies backed by Private Equity and Venture Capital firms. He's also the author of "Overcoming Floccinaucinihilipilification: Valuing and Monetizing Products and Services", the most ridiculously titled pricing book that guides start-ups, entrepreneurs and side hustlers through value-based pricing.

I'll also be joined by IBRS senior advisor David Beal, who works with ICT buyers across industries, to get his views on how MSPs can differentiate. 

Also joining me to talk SMB profitability and advisory will be 3rdmill CEO Natalia Scheidegger.

Doors open at 3pm at The Langham, Southbank. Register here to attend.
